Information about Mbappé’s contract
Kylian Mbappé is supposedly earning an eye-popping €630 million gross salary, the highest sum ever paid to a sportsperson, according to a previous Sports Brief story.
Despite having a verbal agreement to join Real Madrid, Mbappé chose to sign a lucrative three-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain last May instead of making the switch to the Spanish powerhouse.
Despite the lucrative nature of his current contract, the 23-year-old is reportedly planning to leave the club due to a rumored strained relationship with the club’s upper management.
